Product Description
People express and receive love in different ways. Dr. Gary Chapman identifies these as the five languages of love: quality time, words of affirmation, gifts, acts of service and physical touch. If you express love toward others in a way they don't understand, they will not realize you've expressed your love at all. The problem is that you're speaking different languages! Abridged version of the New York Times bestselling title.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good Synopsis, May 14, 2008

By	KV (Media, PA United States) - See all my reviews

This book is a good synopsis of Gary Chapman's book "The Five Love Languages". I do not think that this book would be appropriate for someone who is not familiar with the ideas in his book. It is a good reminder or "cliff note" for his book, but it does not present his ideas fully. I would recommend his other book be read first, and then if you want a refresher or guide book, "The Heart of The Five Love Languages", would be a good match.

3.0 out of 5 stars Short but Sweet, October 13, 2008

By	C. Duryea (Columbus, OH) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This is a dummied down version of the Five Love Languages. It works, but I wish I would have bought the complete version instead.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great read!, June 1, 2008

By	Dianne A. Diffenderfer "Jax Diff" (Jacksonville) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This condensed version of the original Five Love Languages book give a great synopsis of the meaning behind each one. I gave this copy to a friend because I kept referring to an old one that I had. This version makes a great gift. The Five Love Languages breaks down how each of us want to be loved and how each of us gives love to others. Since I first read the book I have enjoyed finding out which love language that my loved ones like to receive. I highly recommend it!
